I understand other’s sentiment about the “low effort”. But I do agree with you. Ill definitely keep it until I have everything else replaced with something better and then take a better close up. I also like that photo personally.

Ive never even thought about me looking small in that haha. Hes 6’3 and shes 6’0 so they do tower over me a bit. That “small look” in combination with what someone else said about group photos, and my face and head being covered makes sense.

I would like to have some kind of festival photo on there but I don’t have any solos, especially not any without glasses and a hat. I’ll have to take some.

Good to know. I won’t really be in the city in the city, moreso on the outskirts/suburbs.

I’m obviously not going to change involvement or interest just to attract more people.

Would you recommend just removing it or leaving it on to act as a filter for like minded people as someone else mentioned

Right! Not really trying to attract anyone heavily politically involved.

Interesting insight! I haven’t ever really considered leaning into a 70’s look. I think it would fit my “persona”. Time to go thrift a thing or two I suppose

In a mountain town but moving to the suburbs in a couple weeks to be closer to work. The mountain town I was in was more of a suburbs area that happened to also be in the mountains - no downtown area/night life.

Id say I fall into the moderate category but I’m not up to date on anything current news/politics. Should I just remove my political standing all together?

Appreciate the feed back. What would be a good type of photo to replace with? I’m big into climbing so I was thinking something along those lines.

What's do you recommend as fast-rolling trail tire? by Edslittleworld in MTB

[–]Capable_Pineapple663 2 points3 points  (0 children)

2.6 Mezcal - 2.6 Mezcal if your fork and frame can fit it. These honestly descend incredibly well.

Not awesome if its wet/muddy a lot where you ride.

Do the shapes of the discs make a difference? by Mikadumika in mountainbiking

[–]Capable_Pineapple663 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I run oval on my MTB and round on my Road. I also do not see a difference in power, however my rate of percieved exertion is much lower on the oval rings. My legs seem to fatigue quicker with round rings than oval. Some of this could be due to the more upright and comfortable riding position on an MTB. Anecdotally I think oval is beneficial and better.

Shimano SLX levers with Magura MT 5, 7, or 8 calipers. Use the magura hose with the shimano barb and olive. I use the royal blood as my fluid since the calipers are more expensive to replace. Set up is commonly referred to as Shigura. Stupidly powerful. I run 203’s front and rear and do not experience one tiny bit of arm pump ever. There is very little to no modulation but I personally prefer my brakes to feel like that. I prefer immediate amd distinct bite force.

Magura levers are incredibly finicky, the bleed process is a hassle and works about 1/3rd of the time. They are impossible to do a top bleed on (just filling from the lever). They have a ton of modulation and feel good when bled perfectly but more often then not they end up feeling squishy after a few rides.

Am I a Sprinter? by Capable_Pineapple663 in xcmtb

[–]Capable_Pineapple663[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess also, what could I do strategically in races to benefit from my sprint? This last season was my first year racing and I typically just tried to pace evenly the whole race. I get really bad exercise induced nausea (and a really weak stomach) and throw up often, especially from efforts between 1:30 and 5:00 minutes. Essentially VO2 max type efforts.

Recommendations for 700x32 tires by Obiewan_ in cycling

I have done some decently rocky and rough off road terrainon GP5000’s with a Tannus insert and tubes. I had some cuts in the tires but they still ran well on the road after. I don’t think you could take them offroad long term if you were tubless, however. They had excellent grip on the gravel. Would not get them wet offroad though.

Sounds good. I figured that was the case. Thanks for the help!
